...if this is true, Sam will singlehandedly do more to retard adoption of #Ai than millions of Neo- #luddites fighting #aislop with memes and literal nonsense.

Any books articles podcast eps etc you know that tells Luddite history in a new, positive light, optionally relating it to current tech-labour situation?

I'm particularly interested in stuff by academic historians as other stuff I'm able to find with more ease.

Looking Back at the Luddites Industrialists, AI, and the Publicly Owned Economy

With every new tech discovery, the technology itself is never the real problem. It's who owns it and how they use it. The #luddites fought for the dignity of the common worker and in return they were slandered by the #industrialists that owned the government. open.substack.com/pub/theancho...

How's that AI thing going for you? Just remember that Luddites warned us about this long ago. www.zazzle.com/beware_of_ai... #AI #luddites #techhumor

What the Luddites Really Fought Against The label now has many meanings, but when the group protested 200 years ago, technology wasn't really the enemy

On 11 Mar 1811, the Luddite riots began, breaking up factory machinery in response to the threat of new inventions replacing their handworking livelihoods. What the #Luddites Really Fought Against: smithsonianmag.com/history/what... via

The Automator’s Playbook: Surviving AI (Brian Merchant) April 11th, 1812. A column of weavers marches on a fortress mill. History calls them 'Luddites'—ignorant machine-smashers. History is wrong. In today's briefing, we reveal why the Luddite rebellion was actually the first war against Big Tech's 'Automator Playbook'—the exact same strategy Silicon Valley is using to devalue your work with AI right now. We explain why technology is political, not inevitable, and how the 'shoddy' products of the 1800s mirror the AI hallucinations of today. Enjoyed this? Unlock the full masterclass to get the 3-step strategy for 'Modern Luddism' that protects your career from the algorithm. Click the link to upgrade.

Les ouvrières restèrent bouche bée. 
« À l’aide de cette machine, annonça Valedixom, nous allons multiplier par dix la production de fil. Elle a été spécialement étudiée pour que même une femme puisse l’utiliser aisément. Une volontaire ? Allons, n’ayez pas peur !
— Vous ! ordonna Tullo. »
La volontaire désignée s’avança. Aidée par Valedixom, elle reproduisit les gestes de l’ingénieur : en arrière, en avant, la manette en bas, puis en haut. Les yeux écarquillés, la bouche ouverte en un sourire de sidération, elle se retourna vers les autres ouvrières :
« C’est pas croyable !
— Mais, intervint Moso, il n’y a que quatre places à votre machine ! Que vont faire les autres ? »
Le votien, ne sachant pas quoi répondre, se tourna vers Tullo.
« Bien sûr, dit le directeur, le travail sera réorganisé. Mais pas d’inquiétude ! Ce n’est encore qu’un essai : tous les ateliers ne vont pas encore être équipé de machines ! Nous allons trouver une nouvelle place pour tout le monde. »
Moso échangea un regard sombre avec Axag.

"being critical" of ai takes on reasonable and unreasonable forms, and many of the critics are just spreading bullshit, as much as the rabidly pro-ai people. here is one of the few truly good critiques i've seen of the whole situation. #ai #documentary #aiwars #astroturf #luddites

Automation was eating into #labor since the 1800s.
#luddites had a go, but were smashed.

But as long as it was steam shovels and the victims were labourers, the upper classes did not have any problems replacing #labour with the machines...
